looks cheap/cheesy/overdone to me

download photomatix HDR software, take 3 exposures, and set to "painterly"

Hi, I'm the guy that took these shots, I first want to say I didnt know my brother posted these pics here, glad some like them and well I can understand why some hate them, everyone has there own taste, but to call my work cheap/chessy, I find very disrespectful, I can agree that they are overdone, but that was at the request of the owners of the rides, here a few more that are not as extreme

let me break it down barney style for you, NON HDR PHOTO's LOOK BETTER


or maybe you'll understand in Chinese, NON HDR PHOTO'S LOOK BETTER

When pictures get HDR'd it looks like the photographer couldn't get the right settings on the camera. Looks like an "aw i fkked up, lemme try to play it off and skew the settings on PS to make it look like i meant it to be like that!"

just dont care for hdr. Would have rather looked at the cars before they got butchered.

You both acted childish. But yeah...if you don't like the pictures move on. I agree that some of them are way overdone....but some of them were nice shots too. So lets all get along here.

To be fair, the OP said "Let me know what you guys think." That means there will be positive and negative feedback.

Regarding the pictures themselves...not very good...but nice cars for sure!

I'm sorry if you were insulted, but I was being honest and to me it looks like crap. Anyone can throw a few exposures into photoshop or photomatix and end up with pictures looking very similar to those, and that is why it looks cheap/cheesy to me.

I understand that some people like the look and that's fine. The later ones you posted look great, and I'm sure you're a talented photographer, I just hate the look of extremely blown out/overdone HDR. That is my opinion.

Yuck. This has gotten out of hand.

HDR can be done the way that was shown above (although some pictures were questionable due to there being people (which move - how can you do an HDR shot of something that is moving?)), or very subtly.

Saying "Non HRD photos look better" is certainly your own personal preference, but I definitely don't agree.

Some more subtle ones:
